My cousin's proud in Jamaica
These are fruits from my labour
I don't owe no one favours
This is hard work and patience
That's the formula for greatness
It ain't no fun if it's painless
Play this song when they hating
Remind yourself that you made it
So don't give up
It gets better just trust
You'll never know if you stop
So everyday you wake up
Give all you got coz we don't know when it's up
So don't give up
Don't let em bring you down
Don't let em bring you down
So don't give up
Don't let em bring you down
Don't let em bring you down
So tell me what you really know about having nothing left
And your dad is out coz he can't pay the debt
And your mum in pain, can't take a step
No money left so everyday she stressed
While you still there tryna' manifest
Still doesn't happen so you feel depressed
Every song I thought it's the one
So I learnt the hard way, never expect
Coz dreams don't pay the bills
And this music don't make mumma' heal
And I got a few followers now but they don't really know how I feel
What you know about being dead broke, couldn't buy fuel
But I got drive out a bedroom
On a tour plane no leg room while the team share like one room
And we get to the venue
And there's not even like thirty fans and no green room
No label advance just passion and plans
We just did it coz we can, and you can
From one hundred dollars a show
So one hundred percent I go
And one thousand percent I know
So don't give up
It gets better just trust
You'll never know if you stop
So everyday you wake up
Give all you got coz we don't know when it's up
So don't give up
Don't let em bring you down
Don't let em bring you down
So don't give up
Don't let em bring you down
Don't let em bring you down
And there's nothing you can do to break me, no I won't give up
No don't give up, don't
You can't stop me now
